In our review of Devil May Cry Season 1, we highlighted both its strengths and weaknesses. "Devil May Cry is not without flaws, including horrendous use of CG, bad jokes, and predictable characters. And yet, Adi Shankar and Studio Mir craft a fun video-game adaptation that doubles as a deranged, bonkers, and bold homage to and indictment of '00s Americana. If nothing else, it contains some of the best animation you’re likely to see this year, and its epic finale makes for a very effective tease for an even wilder second season."
The announcement of Season 2 shouldn't come as a shock to followers of the series. Adi Shankar, the creator, had previously hinted at his vision for a "multi-season arc."
